LAist iPod Essentials

These tracks were in heavy rotation in our iPod this week. Some are old, some are new... all of them are worthy of a listen. Fire up iTunes and enjoy.

	Local Rock \| Red Sparrowes Free Download: Alone and Unaware, from At the Soundless Dawn. This heavy, multilayered instrumental track is dreamy, three-dimensional and intriguing. It's a sonic trip.
	Electronica \| Autechre Download: Bike from . "Bike" is an epic, original and experimental electronica song. LAist prefers some of Autechre's earlier musings to its current Untitled release.
	Pop \| Amanda Ghost Download: Silver Lining from Ghost Stories. Ghost's surname is apropos. Her pipes are haunting, gritty and shorn. That edge combines perfectly with the vulnernable lyrics on this song.
	Folk \| Tracy Chapman Download: 3,000 Miles from Where You Live. Ever since Telling Stories, Chapman has taken a more subdued approach to her music. On 3,000 miles, she muses about the fragile world and her apparent distance from it.
	R&B \| Prince Download: S.S.T. from a Katrina benefit album. S.S.T. stands for Sade's Sweetest Taboo. We dig the Plant Life remix heard on KCRW's Chocolate City, but the original is equally as sweet. Proceeds benefit the Baton Rouge Area Foundation.
